AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Critical Minerals & Batteries: The DOE’s $500 million push for lithium processing, cobalt refining, and battery recycling signals Washington is targeting the bottlenecks after mining, not just extraction. Public Health: A multistate salmonella outbreak tied to imported jalapeños has grown to 431 cases in 32 states, while Kansas reports cyclosporiasis (“exploding diarrhea”) is declining but has already driven millions of Americans to avoid salads. Water & Agriculture: USDA drought disaster designations are unlocking emergency farm relief in Mercer County, N.J., as lawmakers also fight to keep New River and Imperial County water projects from being deauthorized. Wildlands & Forests: The U.S. Forest Service is moving to rescind roadless protections, a change that could expand logging and road building in national forests, including Alaska’s Tongass. Climate Impacts on Health & Infrastructure: Heat is stressing U.S. transportation systems, with roads and other surfaces failing under extreme temperatures. Mosquito Risk: On World Mosquito Day, CDC data shows West Nile virus activity continues across dozens of states, with cases peaking late summer. Conservation Funding: Montana’s NRCS is accepting applications for conservation programs, including easements, wetlands restoration, and working-land improvements.
